Is this for real?

[Dinner]

Hydrolysis of water has been around since forever, however, I've always heard that it cost more energy to break water into two H2 gas molecules and one O2 molecule then you regained by burning the hydrogen. How is this H-HO gas combo different and what is the relative energy balance involved in this process? Anyone know?

I have to admite his machine looks rather large.

There's already been a thread on this subject with the exact same title.

Never saw any other thread. Are you sure you're not thinking of CFC?

I wish people would start making thread titles that make sense. My "does your country subsidize its shipbuilding?" is a marvelous example of how it should be done

Accurate thread titles should be a requirement, or the creator will be shipped off to some top secret CIA facility in the Middle East for some, uh, rest and relaxation. Yes, that's it. A little R&R!

It uses a magical spell to violate conservation of energy.

Or, it doesn't work and can't work for basic reasons of physics.

This is unreal!
